SOIL SURVEY
Use of this soil for community development, for sani-
tary facilities, and as a source of construction material is
limited by steep slopes, high clay content, low strength,
depth to bedrock and shrink-swell potential. Road con-
struction and building foundations can be designed to
reduce the etfects of shrinking and swelling. A good
drainage system reduces soil slumping.
This soil is in capability subclass Vlle, nonirrigated.
65-Torrifluvents, nearly level. This broadly defined
unit consists of deep, well drained to somewhat poorly
drained, nearly level soils on flood plains adjacent to the
Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers and their major tribu-
taries. Slope is 0 to 6 percent. The soils formed in
alluvium.
These soils are stratified and vary widely in texture
and depth. The surface layer ranges from loamy sand
and fine sandy loam to silty loam and clay loam. The
underlying layers are generally sandy loam or loam strati-
fied with sand, gravel, and cobbles. ln some areas gravel
and cobbles are on or near the surface.
The water table fluctuates between depths of 2 and 4
feet and in some years is near the surface during spring
runoff from snowmelt. These soils are subject to brief,
occasional flooding late in spring and early in summer.
lncluded in mapping are small isolated areas of Wann
soils that have slopes of 1 to 3 percent. Small areas of
soils that are moderately to severely affected by alkali
are identified by an alkali spot symbol. Small, isolated
areas where water stands at or near the surface all year
are identified by wet spot and marsh spot symbols.
These areas make up 15 percent of the map unit.
These soils are used for wildlife habitat, recreation,
and some grazing.
The native vegetation is mainly cottonwood, willow,
tamarisk and water-tolerant grasses, sedges, and rushes.
ln many areas these soils are suited to production of
Fremont cottonwood. The soils are capable of producing
230 board feet of timber per acre from a fully stocked,
even-aged stand of 40-year-old trees.
Where these soils are accessible, they provide shelter
and forage for livestock.
Mule deer, cottontail rabbit, coyote, bobcat, ducks,
geese, and other native birds find food and shelter on
these soils. Where feasible, planting food plots, trees
and shrubs, and nesting cover enhances the habitat for
upland wildlife. Where the water table is high, open
water for waterfowl and fish can be cieveloped by blasf
ing or by excavating.
These soils have potential for recreation. Wildlife is
abundant, and the nearby rivers can be used for rafting
and canoeing. Community development is very limited by
flooding, the seasonal high water table, and variable
texture. Onsite investigation is necessary.
These soils are in capability subclass Vllw, nonirrigat-
ed.

66-Torriorthents-Camborthids-Rock outcrop com-
plex, steep. This broadly defined unit consists of ex-
posed sandstone and shale bedrock, loose stones, and
soils that are shallow to deep over sandstone and shale
bedrock and stony basaltic alluvium. This complex
occurs throughout the survey area. The soils and out-
crops are moderately steep to very steep. Slope ranges
from 15 to 70 percent.
Torriorthents make up about 45 percent of the com-
plex, Camborthids make up 20 percent, and Rock out-
crop makes up 15 percent. The Torriorthents are on
foothills and mountainsides below Rock outcrop. The
moderately steep Camborthids are on lower toe slopes
and concave open areas on foothills and mountainsides.
Torriorthents are shallow to moderately deep. They
arc generally clayey to loamy and contain variable
amounts of gravel, cobbles, and stones. The surface is
normally covered with stones weathered from the higher-
lying Rock outcrop. South of the Colorado River, basaltic
stones and cobbles are on the surface.
Camborthids are shallow to deep. They are generally
clayey to loamy and have slightly more clay in the sub-
soil than in the surface layer. The surface layer is light
colored. The profile is normally free of stones, but scat-
tered basalt stones, cobbles, and sandstone fragments
are on the surface.
The Rock outcrop is mainly Mesa Verde sandstone
and Wasatch shale. Some areas are covered with basal-
tic boulders and stones. Small areas of limestone out-
crops and exposed gypsum are in the eastern part of the
survey area.
lncluded in mapping are small, isolated areas of llde-
fonso, Lazear, Ansari, Begay, Heldt, and Doliard soils.
These intermittent areas make up 10 to 20 percent of
this map unit.
This complex is used for grazing, wildlife habitat, and
recreation.
The stones on the surface and the steep slopes make
this complex unsuitable for crops. Some areas can be
reseeded to pasture by broadcast seeding. Other plant-
ing methods are made difficult by the stones and slopes.
The native vegetation includes wheatgrasses, blue-
grasses, lndian ricegrass, needlegrasses, bitterbrush,
mountainmahogany, sagebrush, and an overstory of
pinyon and juniper.
The value of grazing is fair. The vegetation should be
managed to maintain wood production and limited graz-
ing. Selectively thinning the pinyon and luniper improves
grazing and provides firewood and posts. Steep slopes,
moderate to severe erosion hazard, and slow regrowth
of trees affect harvesting and management.
Most of this complex is a prime wintering area for
deer. Rabbits, coyote, and a few elk also find food and
cover on this complex.

67-Torriorthents-Rock outcrop complex, steeP.
This broadly defined unit consists of exposed sandstone
and shale bedrock and stony soils that are shallow to
moderately deep over sandstone and shale and stony
basaltic alluvium. Areas of this complex occur throughout
the survey area. The soils and outcrops are moderately
steep to very steep. Slope ranges from '15 to 70 percent.
Torriorthents make up about 60 percent of this com-
plex, and Rock outcrop makes up 25 percent. The Tor-
riorthents are on foothills and mountainsides below the
Rock outcrop.
Torriorthents are generally clayey to loamy and con-
tain variable amounts of gravel, cobbles, and stones.
The surface is normally covered with stones weathered
from the higher-lying Rock outcrop. South of the Colora-
do River, stones and cobbles of basalt are on the sur-
face.
The Rock outcrop is mainly Mesa Verde sandstone
and Wasatch shale. Some areas are covered with basal-
tic boulders and stones. Small areas of limestone out-
crops and exposed gypsum are in the eastern part ol the
survey area.
lncluded in mapping are small isolated areas of llde-
fonso, Lazear, Ansari, Gaynor, Tridell, and Nihill soils.
These intermittent areas make up 10 to 15 percent of
this map unit.
This complex is used for limited grazing, wildlife habi-
tat, and recreation.
Because of the stones on the surface, the Rock out-
crop, and the steep slope, this complex is unsuited to
crops.
The native vegetation includes wheatgrass, bluegrass,
lndian ricegrass, needlegrass, bitterbrush, sagebrush,
mountainmahogany and an overstory of pinyon and juni-
per.
The vegetation should be managed to maintain wood
production and limited grazing. Selectively thinning the
pinyon and juniper improves grazing and provides fire-
wood and posts. Steep slopes, moderate to severe ero-
sion hazard, and slow regrowth of trees affect harvesting
and management.
Most of this complex is a prime wintering area for
deer. Rabbits, coyote, and a few elk also find food and
cover on this complex.
Community development is limited by the Rock out-
crop, steep slopes, and stoniness. These limitations can
be overcome by appropriate design and construction.
This complex is in capability subclass Vlle, nonirrigat-
eci.
68-Vale silt loam, 3 to 6 percent slopes. This deep,
